A general finite element framework for the application to different types of phase transforming alloys and under general thermo-mechanical loadings is presented. The developed technique is exemplified on cubic to tetragonal transformations of shape memory alloys.

The quasi-hydrodynamic model for semiconductor devices is a typical example of non-local models which, in contrast to the conventional drift-diffusion models, allows to account for non-equilibrium processes in semiconductor plasma. In this paper, we present results of a numerical simulation of...

Nanowire superlattices (NWSLs) are objects with a wide range of potential applications in nanoscale electronics and photonics. These objects are already grown experimentally in laboratories and studies of their properties represent an important task in nanotechnology research. Tools of...

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to deal with the practical challenge faced by modern logistics enterprises to accurately evaluate driving performance with high computational efficiency under the disturbance of road smoothness and to identify significantly associated performance influence...

Purpose: This study examined a curvilinear and moderated relationship between transformational leadership and employee creative performance in a real-world setting by drawing from the too-much-of-a-good-thing effect and the substitutes for leadership perspectives. Design/methodology/approach:...
